Well I guess that means that Woody plans on being here past next year. 🤦‍♂️

I agree. He may very well end up being a fantastic player but his weakness is his handles and he isn't really a 3 point shooter. So how much will he really help this team if we still can't make 3's?

Maybe thanks to a big bag of money? Does anyone else think we are mainly only getting talent now because we're offering to pay them the most? I realize immediate playing time is a bonus but $$ talks, right?

So I live in the Louisville area and what's happening at UofL is comical. They whiffed on Drew last week and he basically publicly bashed the program and the fans, then went all in on Dusty May only to lose out to Michigan. Yesterday the rumors were swirling with Richard Pitino (wtf) and now today it appears it's a done deal with Pat Kelsey. Apparently they offered the position to Josh Schertz after May but then found out he had already signed a memorandum of understanding to be the next head coach at Saint Louis because he thought he was out of the running at Louisville. You can't make this stuff up. So Kelsey is at minimum their 4th choice and all of this is public. It's good to know that the IU administration isn't the only clown show in town! 😂

Ok he is literally the only one that I wouldn't. You get the idea though.

I would take every single coach on this list over Woodson. SMH

So we're loading up the money to buy Woody some players but we can't pony up the money to fire him and hire a coach that doesn't need the most expensive hired hands to be successful?? I can already see what's going to happen...we'll have the highest payroll in college basketball with mediocre results. Cool

You don't think Ole Miss did that?

I didn't know it was guilty until proven innocent in our justice system. Are you saying Ole Miss is a terribly unethical university for hiring him? I'm sure they did their due diligence and had their own investigation.

Well to me that really sucks. He will probably win a championship somewhere. For him to not even be considered when the time comes for a coaching change is ridiculous IMO. But then again our administration has been ridiculous for decades now.

Well said. Please email this to Dolson!

Anybody think Dan Hurley would be a possibility? I know we would have to load up the truck but money talks, right?

I'm not sure Ware is ready to go pro. So if he and Malik return next season, is there room for Queen? Would he come here to potentially come off the bench? Maybe this is why he is delaying his decision, to get more insight on what our roster will look like next year. No inside info here, just my thoughts.

Exactly! I see zero downside. I wonder if he is saving it for a possible 2024 recruit to start classes next semester or something like that.

So is it official....is our roster set? I'm super surprised we didn't use that last scholly, especially with the addition of the 2 quality walk ons we recently added. It's like Woody is saving it for someone but are we looking at anyone at this point at all?

Anyone know if we have reached out to Quinerly? I think he could really flourish under Woodson.

Dangit there goes Pitino already hurting us in recruiting again the minute he gets another high major job. Shocking. We might not have gotten Dingle anyway but he is def another recruiting threat until he retires or gets in trouble again!

Def grab a guard. We desperately need a shooter IMO. Or a combo guard who can create, run the point if necessary and be respectable from 3. Another impact player if we want to be a very good team as opposed to just a probable tourney team next year

This would be HUGE. I'm tired of being second choice with these high profile recruits. Hopefully that trend ends NOW!

He doesn't know how. Never coached a college game before coming here. Did people really expect anything different? Our program is just sad right now. And has been for wayyyy too long

Has there been any word on the extent of XJ's injury?

Any word on X's injury?

If TJD comes back and Dennis commits then I'm pretty certain it will be Leal or Kopp that leaves. I love Leal's passion for Indiana basketball but I just don't see him getting many minutes and would probably be better served to play elsewhere where he can get more playing time and develop.

Any word on a visit date or if he is still planning a visit?

I've seen enough to know that he would undoubtedly be an upgrade to Kopp if he leaves.
